“The officers saved a few doughnuts to enjoy later and donated the rest to the homeless feeding that takes place adjacent to the police station each night,” the department said.

The community offers free meals to the homeless several times a week.

“One of the things that we always try to live out in the police department is that we’re community champions,” the police spokesperson told ABC News. “We like to do things for all parts of the community. This was just a way to help some of those people who were in need, and to make sure all of those doughnuts didn’t go to waste.”
